A tech company called BrandShield has come up with software that looks well-timed for the US presidential election.
Its ElectionShield product protects political campaigns from online threats such as fraudulent fundraising sites, social phishing, and impersonation.
"Good campaigns that communicate with voters are central to well-run elections and referendums. In terms of online campaigning, the growing range of threats, such as social impersonation, social phishing, fraudulent fundraising and fake news, weakens people's faith,” said BrandShield chief Yoav Keren.
“Having been a political campaigner myself, I know how important it is to ensure this faith is maintained. I am delighted that we have been able to utilize BrandShield's proven technology in the political arena.”
